Fishing Tournaments

The Grayson County Tourism Commission has implemented a Fishing Tournament Grant Program. With thousands of acres of water on Nolin and Rough River Lakes, any tournament will be a huge success. Grant amounts are awarded based on several criteria including:

Length of tournament

Number of boats participating

Mileage traveled to Grayson County.

NOTE: Grants are not given for tournaments held Memorial Day through Labor Day. Fishing clubs are limited to a maximum allotment of $250 per fiscal year with the exception of events exceeding 80 boats and some 2-day events. Contact us for more information.
